While the thought of buying a genuine haunted house is an exciting proposition for many people, it is important that you do your homework when looking at prospective properties to make sure that you’re getting the real deal and the best haunted house for your dollar.

Don’t just rely on advertisements when you’re looking for that perfect haunted house; take the time to ask around. Many hauntings get talked about in the neighbourhood, so make sure that you ask around to find out about any possible places. It can also be useful to look for haunted houses for sale on the internet; it’s safe to say that you can find anything there is to be found on the internet.

The first thing that you need to consider is what kind of haunted house you want; haunted houses come in many shapes and sizes varying from modern architecture to historic mansions and everything in between. The best way to find a haunted version of your favourite architecture is to look in an area that has a lot of your favourite style; there’s bound to be some disenfranchised spirits lingering around somewhere.

There are many signs of a haunted house, though you will want to choose carefully which signs are most desirable for a property before you buy it. While some people are delighted by a home that creaks and moans at all hours, others are looking specifically for self-stacking kitchen chairs or animated trees in the yard. Beware of haunted houses that have bad smells or bleeding walls, you’ll find that otherworldly smells permeate your furniture and a home that bleeds spectral blood can stain your decor most unpleasantly.

Make sure that you talk to the neighbors of any haunted house that you’re looking at buying to make sure that they look upon the property at least somewhat favorably; no one wants neighbors who might be tempted to drag an exorcist over when you’re away on holidays to purify your home and drive all your nifty ghosts out if you want them to stay.

While a haunted house can be a dream home for many people, it is vitally important to make sure that you do some serious research into the history of the home you’re looking to buy before you sign on the dotted line; you don’t want any nasty surprises after you’ve moved in and it comes to light that your home is built on the site of a medieval asylum or used to be a sacred forest. Hauntings that take place on sites such as these can be particularly malevolent and are as such not great places to live; the renovation and exorcism bills can be prohibitive.

Just as if you were to look for a house without a ghostly presence, it is well worth the effort to take your time and do your homework before you buy a haunted house, make sure that it fits all your family’s needs before you buy, you’ll be happy you made the extra effort.

Colette Smith has always had an entrepreneurial spirit. This former owner and operator of a picture framing and gallery shop is now using her business acumen and talent for decorating to help homeowners in the Perth Metropolitan area of Australia sell their homes fast.

Colette is a Staging Diva® Graduate and the owner of Perth home staging business, Staged with Finesse. Her company recently helped a real estate investor increase the value of a property by $30,000.

This real estate investor was preparing to sell her unit in a 200 unit complex. The 2-bedroom unit was in a great location with river views but because it had been a long-standing rental, it needed to be updated before going to market.

Colette determined that the home’s target market was a professional couple or a small family and the home staging was done with that demographic in mind.

First, though, maintenance issues were attended to with non-working exhaust fans being replaced, new carpets installed and old cupboards removed. Walls were then painted in soft shades of grey and doors and trim were done in dark charcoal to give the unit a smart, crisp and modern look.

The unit was staged with rental furniture, lamps, art, draperies and accessories all expertly chosen by Colette.

Colette’s client was a real estate agent in addition to being an investor and quickly determined that the asking price would have to go up after the transformation. There were two other units in the building for sale at the same time – one for $250,000 and another for $265,000.

The unit “Staged with Finesse” went on the market for $295,000 and sold to the first person to view it. Clear proof that home staging works!

Colette recently wrote to say, “Training with Debra Gould gave me the confidence to take what I knew I had and put it into practice. What I did for free before I now do for money and love what I am doing. The gleaming smiles of satisfaction on clients’ faces when they view the transformation is more important than the financial rewards at the end of the day. What a difference a day makes!”
